Chapter 861 The proud Chang family

What is she here for?

There was a look of disgust on Chang's face.

The last time Ming'er moved out of Prince Ming's Mansion, she came to visit with a hypocritical face. She knew better than anyone else that she just came to see her lively.

Now she's here again?

But she didn't seem to have much fun to watch.

Thinking of this, she waved her hand directly,

"Please come in."

At the same time, she hurriedly adjusted her collar and pushed the jade bracelet on her hand towards her wrist. She and Concubine Li had been jealous for half their lives. Now that their men were gone, she couldn't let her compete. .

After a while, Concubine Li came to her with the help of the girl. Although Mrs. Chang was disdainful, she still leaned forward and saluted her.

"A commoner's wife pays her respects to Concubine Li."

Concubine Li hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.

"Sister Chang, there is no need to be so polite between us sisters."

Mrs. Chang hummed softly, waved the handkerchief in her hand, sat down on the soft couch, and then waved her hand.

"Princess Li, please take a seat!"

"Thank you, Sister Chang. I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you? Sister, I brought you your favorite osmanthus cake."

"Thank you, Mrs. Li, for caring about me. I'm getting older now and don't like eating these sweet things. Mrs. Li, I'd better take them back!"

"How can you take back what you brought? You have to taste it when you are free."

Chang's lips raised and she ordered to the servants outside:

"Come here, Mrs. Li can't eat the pastries brought by Concubine Li. You can share them among yourselves!"

After hearing this, the servant carefully entered the room and took the pastry bag from the hand of the girl next to Concubine Li.

"Thank you, Princess Li, for thinking about me."

Concubine Li immediately bit her lower lip with a cold eyebrow. This Chang family was really ignorant. She didn't want the food given to her, but actually gave it to the servants in front of her. Isn't this sincerity to embarrass her?

But she waved her hand pretending not to care.

"Sister Chang really loves this servant and makes me ashamed of myself! By the way, I heard that Prince Ming has been unhappy recently and didn't go to court this morning? What's wrong? Have you seen the imperial doctor?"

Mrs. Chang frowned and looked at her, "Don't worry about this, Princess Lao Li. Ming'er went hunting with the emperor yesterday and contracted the cold. She has already received medicine from the imperial doctor, and she will be fine soon."

Speaking of hunting, Princess Li exclaimed as if she had thought of something,

"By the way, I heard that the Queen was injured, and she was very serious. Does Sister Chang know about this?"

Mrs. Chang immediately pretended to be ignorant.

"I don't know? I'm a woman who stays in the palace all day long. How can I know what's going on in the palace? Concubine Li, on the other hand, is really well-informed."

Concubine Li knew that Mrs. Chang was deliberately pretending not to know, and her hatred for Liu Luolan was by no means less than hers.

She shook the handkerchief in her hand and covered her mouth with a chuckle, "Sister Chang has great eyes and hands, how could she not know about this? Back then, the queen caused you to be thrown into the cold palace by the late emperor, and you have fallen into a place of no return. You should do something about it. You should pay more attention to her news! If it weren't for her, you, like my sister, would be named Princess Chang. You would be valued and respected when you go out. How could you be bullied like that by your own daughter-in-law? What does it look like?"

Mrs. Chang slapped the table with her palms and glared at Concubine Li.

"Are you here to see me having fun?"

Concubine Li hurriedly raised her hands and pressed them down.

"Sister, I have misunderstood. We sisters have been together for more than ten years. We love each other very much. How can my sister see you having fun? My sister is here to tell you that your good daughter-in-law has gone to the palace to take care of the Queen. You should Take advantage of this period of time to quickly find a concubine for Prince Ming to take her place to prevent her from coming back in the future."

At this point, she tapped her forehead with her finger,

"By the way, Princess Xingnan of the Nanping Kingdom still lives in the palace. I heard that she came this time to make peace with the Daning Kingdom, but she hasn't found the right person yet. This is a good opportunity!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Chang's eyes flashed a few times, and then she looked at Concubine Li.

"Is this true?"

Concubine Li sat up straight and nodded solemnly,

"Of course, a few days ago I went to the Qixia Palace to see Princess Yongping, and she said it unintentionally. I have been thinking these past few days that Prince Ming just divorced Liu Luoxue. If he can get married to the Lord Xingnan, Then his status in the court cannot be underestimated."

Mrs. Chang looked at her alertly,

"Such a good thing, would you think of me?"

"My sister has misjudged my sister again. My sister has always regarded you as my own sister. Of course she will think of you when good things happen. Besides, Xi'er already has a wife and concubines, so how could Princess Xingnan commit herself to marrying? Prince Ming is different. , he is single now, and Princess Xingnan will be the official concubine when she marries him. If Prince Ming’s Palace can reconcile with Nanping Kingdom, it will be a most appropriate happy event."

Ms. Chang nodded in agreement, but then she got into trouble.

"But Ming'er doesn't want to marry someone else. I'm a anxious mother, so what can I do?"

Concubine Li waved the handkerchief in her hand and reminded in an exaggerated tone,

"Are you stupid? You asked the emperor for marriage in the name of Prince Ming. As long as the emperor gives the decree, what will happen if Prince Ming doesn't agree?"

"Isn't that bullying the king? Do you want to kill me?"

"Sister, how can I ask you to do this to deceive the emperor? You just ask someone to write a request for the order, and then ask Prince Ming to write his name. That's it!"

"But...but Ming'er won't agree."

"Of course he won't agree. Don't let him know the contents of your brochure. When the emperor's decree on marriage comes down, if he wants to go back on it, it will be a crime of rebellion. As long as he bites the bullet and agrees to it. , no one dares to mess with Prince Ming’s Mansion.”

Mrs. Chang was still a little hesitant, but Concubine Li simply said bluntly again,

"I couldn't sleep a few days ago. My servant went to Miaozhentang in the city and got me a prescription. After taking it, I felt groggy all day long. I nodded in agreement to whatever others said to me. You said it was magical. No?"

When she said this, Concubine Li glanced at Mrs. Chang's face and saw that she was meditating on something. She immediately brushed her temples and stood up.

"Sister, I'm going back first. When I have a few days free, my sister will come to see you. It's up to you to decide whether you want to do what my sister just said or not!"

Seeing Concubine Li swinging her veil and twisting her waist to leave, Mrs. Chang began to have trouble.

If Ming'er could really get married to Princess Xingnan, it would be a great thing, but would Concubine Li have the kindness to remind her?

She doubted her intentions and wondered if it was really possible.

After a while, Xiaotao came back jogging with a few firecrackers.

"Old lady, I bought the firecrackers, do you want to set them off now?"

Mrs. Chang waved her hand directly.

"There's no need to let it go. By the way, you go to Miaozhentang to get me some medicine. Just say that I always have trouble falling asleep at night."

"Old madam, you have slept very well these days. Why do you need medicine?"

"Just go when I ask you to, stop talking nonsense."

Xiao Tao held up the firecracker in her hand,

"Then...where do you put these?"

"Put it in the warehouse first. I'll have a lot of use for it."

Xiaotao said "oh" without knowing why, then took the few firecrackers and went out.
